I've used straw too, but the pine shaving do better with both moisture and smell. The straw will have to be changed more frequently and you look like you already have tons of stuff to do! I get a package of pine shavings (never cedar - it's bad for birds) from TSC for $5. My coop is 6x6 and one package lasts a month. Should last even longer for you! Good luck with your chickens. Sounds like you're off to a great start!
